Depends. Eagle rods have come with standard 7/16" ARP bolts. Most of the newer sets come with 5/16" ARP 2000 rod bolts.

The "3SGTE/22R" rod bolts are made of 8740 chrome moly steel and rated at 200K psi while the ARP 2000's are rated at 220-230K psi. Replacement rod bolts for aftermarket rods are usually not off the shelf parts in many stores and I highly doubt the $40-50 ARP 3S/22R rod bolt kit is for the same application as Eagle rods. They are really meant for when you are replacing the stock bolts for stock rods.

Good luck with the build though, looks like it's coming alone nicely.
